ISS 7-11-22

Awesome!

Thank you!

CGI

KEWL AF!

Woah, nice !

Thank you!

Love it! You're 10% of why I visit GLP Dr.Astro

Cool, it flew directly over my house Sat night while watching the meteor shower!

Was really cool.

So cool.

Thanks for sharing bro.

Great video to be sure. I'm just curious as to why when I run it through adobe premier and enhance it as well as test filters, it looks like it and the black blob around it were done to place this on a fake background.

Cool and interesting. Just curious, how come there are no stars in video as well as the space station?

Because it's stabilized in post using my software. I've also been developing it for real-time stabilization during my live streams.

Because ISS is orders of magnitude too bright for most background stars to be visible. It's the same reason you don't see stars in footage from ISS when the camera is set to expose for bright daylit scenes.

I can't imagine how amazing this planet must be from a distance.

It just bogles my mind that you can get imagery like that. It would be so cool to develop a dynamic spatial distortion stabilization/correction. I Knew an individual before I retired that was working on just such an algorithm for a vehicle mounted video sensor.

I believe this is more real:

Thank you for self-identifying as an idiot.

What kind of telescope would be needed for viewing that?

What would be a good scope for a tech savy person to purchase to tinker with? Looking for something I can set, configure, tracks auto and I can attach laptop/tablet to for viewing.

This was shot with an 11" Celestron NexStar GPS. NexStar has really good programming support with full support for setting custom drive rates for smooth high speed tracking, and that's across the full range of NexStar SE scopes. If you're looking to do things like this, a 6" or 8" NexStar SE would be a great way to start.

Thanks! I will look into them, I'd say the 6/8 would suffice my needs for starting out. I simply want to check out planets and ISS. : )

Lovely view Astromutt. Thanks for making another great astronomy thread I caught it for the first time with a naked eye a couple weeks back. Was like a very bright -2 magnitude star doing a low arch South from West to East. Was quite amazing to look at.

I need to get a telescope.

7-11-22 is September 11

Sept means 7 you know.

Howdy Astro:

Nice! Just one thing can you get them to wave out a window for us as clear as that is we may be able to see them.

Ever catch a space walk?

ISS was and is a BIG waste of money. so much money was spent for its launch and upkeep, that no real money was spent on experiments.

I'm staring at one of the experiments on ISS right now. Sorry you think it's a waste.

:^this:

The experiment to make queers post and bitch was a resounding success.
